Xmas Light show Displays
The time this family spent putting this together, is great. I have seen The Trans-Siberian Orchestra a few times, but this is a great way to hear and watch the music. What have you seen?

Nice, but after a nite or two, wouldnt the neighbors start to hate you???? and not to degrade, but in some cities, that peace symbol would be bad form... on that note? Why is that???? sorry to go off subject.

I think that same display has been around for a couple of years now. As I understand it, the person that owns that house is a "programmer" for a large company.
As a resource............Costco is selling a controller box and a starter light kit , for something like $125.00.

Seen a couple on the news on TV, guess when you drive by the house you tune your radio to a certain station to hear the music. Wild.
just thinking about the Chevy Chase movie 'Christmas Vacation' where the guy's father says, "one light goes out they all go out"
The ones I heard about also said the people turn it off at about 10PM or so, want to keep the neighbors friendly

He uses Light-O-Rama for his displays.
Here's his 2006 displays that were done at Heritage Oak Park.
